Syntax

exchange.SetRate

Set the current exchange rate of the exchange object.


    
    
    
exchange.SetRate(rate)

Examples

Set the rate to 7 so prices are multiplied by 7, then restore it to 1.


    javascript
    
    
function main(){
    Log(exchange.GetTicker())
    // Set exchange rate conversion
    exchange.SetRate(7)
    Log(exchange.GetTicker())
    // Set to 1, no conversion
    exchange.SetRate(1)
}


    python
    
    
def main():
    Log(exchange.GetTicker())
    exchange.SetRate(7)
    Log(exchange.GetTicker())
    exchange.SetRate(1)


    rust

Remarks

If an exchange rate has been set with exchange.SetRate(), for example 7, then the prices in the ticker, depth, K-line, order and position data obtained through this exchange object, as well as the quote-currency Balance and FrozenBalance of the account, are multiplied by 7; amounts are not converted.
When placing orders (exchange.Buy(), exchange.Sell(), exchange.CreateOrder()), the price you pass is taken as a converted price and is divided by the rate back into the original currency before being sent to the exchange; non-positive prices such as -1 for market orders are not converted. Prices for exchange.ModifyOrder() and condition orders are not converted and must be given in the exchange's original currency.
For example, if exchange is an exchange quoted in US dollars, after exchange.SetRate(7) all live prices are multiplied by 7 and become close to CNY-denominated prices.
